Preparing For The Annual Jericho Run

The team spent the day preparing the paths around the sports ground for the 5th annual Jericho Run which takes place this Sunday, 21st June. Both the 10k adult run and the 1 mile children's run will bring the runners through the college grounds, about 400 adults and 275 children running for charity.

The paths were raked, over hanging shrubs cut back and overgrown borders strimmed down. Over the next few days Heras temporary fencing and wooden fence posts with a rope line will be erected to guide the runners safely through the college. This is the third year the grounds have been used as part of the course for this family event.
